Apparently explaining that the server's development is being put on hold is now the same as "bitching because people won't help me." Can you search a little harder for reasons to insult internet strangers? YL's company is being sold and he's putting the server's development on hold while he...

Particularly hilarious after he accused every critic of being the same person with alt accounts the other day during his big meltdown. What an absolute failure of a human being.

Unless the population is too small to function without boxing. Then it saves games.

It's the video game industry that's changing. Whether or not it sucks is pretty subjective -- I'm sure today's teenagers think it's great. Kids aren't complaining about it, they don't know any better. What's for certain is that the industry is heading into very questionable territory where...

No. You're going to either acknowledge and discourage his campaign of consciously misleading information, or you're going to allow us to respond to him in kind. You can't let a guy lie about people and then force them to ignore it. If that's what you're insisting on then you should ban me...

The ignore function isn't very compelling when he's being allowed to continuously spread lies about people. You can't let him do that and then expect people to just let it happen. If you're gonna let him be like that, you're gonna have to let people respond in kind. HEY EVERYBODY, I KNEW...

Proxies and internet phones aren't magic. Emphasis mine. See the pattern? The exact same rhetoric that Kegz has been spouting in quite frankly every post he makes. It's not some Doylian mystery we're talking about here. Every time he posts his bullshit and someone points out how flagrantly...

The difference is that 1) he shamelessly and unapologetically breaks the forum rules and 2) he routinely lies about everybody who disagrees with him in order to try and "win" the argument by discrediting them as individuals. You're facilitating that. It's not just a matter of people disliking...

Mobs weren't able to spin on live, they'd just behave as if hit by a regular stun. The fact that the mechanic is called SpinStun doesn't mean anything. Mobs were mehcanically incapable of spinning.

But you're a troll who doesn't even play on The Sleeper, and also you were banned for cheating! How can you not appreciate the $ he wasted on pleasing the hundreds upon hundreds of players, every single one of whom enjoy the most polished and fair Velious server in the universe? Come see for...

You can't assault every critic with a barrage of lies and accusations, and then expect them to move on when you've run out of things to say.

Why the fuck did you unlock the thread if people aren't allowed to post in it? Or are we meant to sit idly by while he calls us trolls and cheaters and falsely claims to have banned us on the server, and blatantly lies to the forum users who ask about his server? He's the one who has been...

Kegz is quite possibly the most dishonest and underhanded person I've ever encountered online.

There's a primitive but functional database in the open-source PEQ (Project EQ) which most EQEmu servers use as a starting point. While it probably wouldn't be technically compatible with whatever code EQC has cobbled together, the data can be used. Then it's mainly just a matter of correcting...

That was the case for about two weeks and then everything ground to a halt. Nobody was posting, testing, responding, anything. The fact that there was briefly an Alpha server up doesn't make EQC not vaporware. After five years they've still produced basically nothing, and recent events...

Hahaha, oh dear. What a theater this thread is.

I think you should lock the thread. OP is on an epic meltdown, is abusing multiple forum features (spamming, flagrantly lying about other posters, downvoting everybody who speaks against him) and is clearly willing to destroy the thread in order to bury criticism. His server is dead anyway...

Alright, can an admin please ban Kegz? He's having an epic meltdown and is spamming his own thread in order to bury people's posts. He has done enough damage to himself by now and has taken the step from merely being a complete idiot to actual libellous attacks and spam-posting his server info...

I wasn't banned at any point. Look, this is a trend I've noticed throughout the entire thread: When criticized, you accuse the person of being a troll who hasn't played on the server. When faced with facts for which you have no meaningful argument, you call the person a cheater and claim to have...

You've just committed the ultimate forum failure. Wow. I'm not even going to bother suggesting that an admin check IPs, you'll probably just grasp for even further straws and claim a proxy network has been set up to unfairly discredit you or something. You really are the epitome of an idiot...

People thought it would be different because he'd spent two years developing the server and promised a bunch of stuff. It was very reasonable to think it would be at least decent. Itshouldhave been decent, given the resources and people he had available to him. The fact that it's so staggeringly...

Himself. It has long been obvious that Kegz suffers from some minor psychological issue, and denying his own failure clearly helps him cope.

I need a link to this if it hasn't been deleted yet. It sounds worth a read, maybe even a televised drama series.

I get flamed and insulted every time I call EQC vaporware, but they've still produced nothing after five years, and they don't look likely to do so in the near future. I can't believe people still think it'll happen.

Developers have unfortunately discovered that it's more profitable to produce garbage with a lifespan of two months and a production cost of $20m than spend six years developing a real, thoroughly-crafted MMORPG with a larger scope. It's disastrous for the genre, and the collapse of the MMORPG...

Can't fault Kegz for his consistency, at least. I mentioned it earlier in the thread; literally any and every form of criticism gets the same response from him: "You don't play on the server and you're a troll." Kegz, this is the reason The Sleeper is already set to be the biggest, most...

There weren't very many mandatory AAs. Each class needed a few, such as MGP, FT or EQ+AM. The amount of "required" AAs could be obtained in a matter of like two weeks, you could grind 2-3 AAs per hour if you weren't slacking and no expansion added more than at most 50 AAs that could possibly be...

Judging by how pretty literally nothing worked after two years of "development," I wouldn't place too much faith in those Allakhazam printouts. By the way, Allakhazam is wildly incorrect to this day despite every secret and myth of EQ being long uncovered. Allakhazam wasn't more correct back...

Almost? It's clearly the defining principle of the game's development.

It's a free and ridiculously easy MMORPG. That sort of thing will always get some people to play.

Jay Wilson makes a disaster of Diablo III. Jay Wilson is reassigned to "another project" within the company. A few months later, Titan is deemed a disaster and cannibalized.

There's no pride of artisanship left amongst the major developers, just pursuit of the profit margin. They've all become soulless corporations that make games exclusively for money, not for the love of making games which incidentally pays well. It really shows in the games they make.

Yes but I suspect it's because I turned 28 last month. There hasn't really been a game in the last five or six years that I cared to play for more than a month or so. The greed and pandering to the lowest common demoninator in search of a broader audience simply shines through too much and...

It's especially odd how developers will never provide a proper classic experience, even when it's clear that there's a demand and when the live game has gone into decline. UO, Everquest, DAoC, WoW, and probably several other MMORPGs have sizeable communities that want to play an older version of...

It's like Microsoft are taking everything that makes it inconvenient for the user but potentially saves a little on production costs, and everything that pisses gamers off but satisfies the corporate greed of publishers, and cramming it all into a box that's probably going to break every four...

It costs money to maintain an adequate CS department and PWE are the McDonalds of MMORPGs: rock-bottom quality fed to the uncritical and unintelligent, catering to the very lowest common denominator of the genre's followers.

Assuming and expecting doesn't prove anything. I haven't played regularly in over a year, but I never saw the slightest evidence of corruption. We knew there was some RMTing going on between players, but it wasn't enough to affect me in any way, nor has the economy ever crashed or anything. It...

People always say P99 is rotten to the core, but the only indication of corruption I've ever seen was when Amelinda's name was mentioned in connection with something RMT-related. Nobody has ever provided any more evidence than that, as far as I'm aware. That really doesn't seem enough to...

The surface gameplay is sort of fun. Nice controls, genuinely interesting leveling content that plays a lot like NWN. If you scratch the surface in any way, i.e. play more than like a couple of weeks or try to be hardcore/competitive about it, the game reveals itself to be total discount crap...

Does TESO have an actual endgame or is it yet another MMORPG that consists wholly of half a dozen 5-man dungeons and a PvP environment that stagnates after three weeks? I'm fed up with games that barely have enough content for a month of play, but if TESO has any kinds of meaningful and engaging...
